But if you want to be sure that you will a large selection of animals from Lapland, and even some from other Arctic regions of the planet, you should take into considerataion to visit the Ranua Zoo.

The visit to the zoo is with no doubt a great activity to do it with the whole family, even with the youngest. At the entrance of the zoo you will find baby carriage that you can use to help you moving around. The whole tour takes about 1h and is a round tour. The route goes sometimes through a wooden path that in winter it might be a bit slippery in some sections… so be careful how you walk!
